Herndon High School Band to participate in the 75th Anniversary of the Normandy Invasion

Below is link to an NBC4 story they did about the Band trip to Normandy. It’s 3:44 minutes long. It shows some brief scenes of when Angie Goff visited our Depot and spoke to Margaret Jamborsky who has been researching history of the USS Herndon.

At our September 27, 2017 meeting Barbara Glakas showed the silent film “The Road to Happiness”. The film was made in 1924 by the Ford Motor Company. The purpose of the film was to promote improved roads and was shown throughout the United States. Many scenes in this film were shot in western Fairfax County and featured local residents, including residents from the Herndon area. In addition to viewing the film we learned about some of the local residents who participated in the film. To view the film click on the link or image below.
